Static Plantar Pressure Distribution Measured Using PodoPrint Aluminum Platform in Multiple Sclerosis Patients: A Case-Control Study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionMultiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex early-onset neurological disorder with significant functional implications. Neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration are the primary pathological processes underlying MS, both of which may alter lower limb loading patterns. These alterations can be evaluated through static plantar pressure distribution. This study hypothesized that patients with MS would exhibit higher static plantar pressures compared to healthy controls.
methodsA multicenter case-control study was conducted with 88 participants, comprising 44 patients diagnosed with MS and 44 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Static plantar pressures were assessed using the PodoPrint Aluminum pressure platform.
resultsThe MS group demonstrated significantly lower maximum peak pressure values in both the right foot (p < 0.007) and the left foot (p < 0.001) compared to the control group.
conclusionA marked reduction in maximum peak pressures and weight-bearing capacity was observed in patients with MS may have reduced plantar pressure, which could be indicative of altered gait patterns and balance issues.
